im tired of waiting 15s for my kasa smart bulbs to connect to wifi before i can control them (either via alexa or kasa app) so im looking for a solution to connect them to a hub or something. I have the kasa switcher that turn off and on the bulbs but its actually turning off the power and not sending a signal to the bulbs to turn off which lead me to the issue where the bulbs wont connect in time for me to say commands after i turn them on. So what should i do here?

On a second thought, it’s doable to dim the lights directly from cloudfree switch.
